Oxidative coupling for facile, stable carbon modification with DNA and proteins [PDF]
Modification of electrodes with biomolecules is an essential first step for the development of biosensors. Conventionally, gold electrodes are used because of their ease of modification with thiolated biomolecules.

5hmC modification regulates R-loop accumulation in response to stress
R-loop, an RNA-DNA hybrid structure, arises as a transcriptional by-product and has been implicated in DNA damage and genomic instability when excessive R-loop is accumulated. Although previous study demonstrated that R-loop is associated with ten-eleven

Genetic Modification of Sodalis Species by DNA Transduction
A large number of economically important insects maintain intimate associations with maternally inherited endosymbiotic bacteria. Due to the inherent nature of these associations, insect endosymbionts cannot be usually isolated in pure culture or ...

Allele-Specific PCR for PIK3CA Mutation Detection Using Phosphoryl Guanidine Modified Primers
Phosphoryl guanidine (PG) is the novel uncharged modification of internucleotide phosphates of oligonucleotides. Incorporating PG modification into PCR primers leads to increased discrimination between wild-type and mutated DNA, providing extraordinary ...

Alleviation of C⋅C Mismatches in DNA by the Escherichia coli Fpg Protein
DNA polymerase III mis-insertion may, where not corrected by its 3′→ 5′ exonuclease or the mismatch repair (MMR) function, result in all possible non-cognate base pairs in DNA generating base substitutions.

Enhanced transformation efficiency of recalcitrant Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis isolates upon in vitro methylation of plasmid DNA [PDF]
Digestion patterns of chromosomal DNAs of Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis strains suggest that Sau3AI-type restriction modification systems are widely present among the isolates tested.

DNA methylation assessed by SMRT sequencing is linked to mutations in Neisseria meningitidis isolates [PDF]
The Gram-negative bacterium Neisseria meningitidis features extensive genetic variability. To present, proposed virulence genotypes are also detected in isolates from asymptomatic carriers, indicating more complex mechanisms underlying variable ...

Structural and mutagenic analysis of the RM controller protein C.Esp1396I [PDF]
Bacterial restriction-modification (RM) systems are comprised of two complementary enzymatic activities that prevent the establishment of foreign DNA in a bacterial cell: DNA methylation and DNA restriction.
